I Am Binge Watching Under The Hammer

I get so caught up in British shows. This one is about houses that go up for auction and then they meet the people who bought them, usually 3 per show. They find out what they plan to do to the house, and then they check back with them many months later to find out what it actually cost them to do the renovations and are they going to sell the house or rent it. Some of the people actually do decide to live in the house or flat but not many of them. What strikes me about this show is how much less expensive it is to do renovation there than here. They do new kitchens and bathrooms and floors and more and spend less than $20,000. Here, you can't even do a kitchen for that price. I am fascinated by the whole process. I was actually considering buying a flat in Wisbech which is near where my grandmother was born and if hubs hadn't been adamantly opposed I would now have a great home in England. It was in a Georgian building, was freehold and even had a parking spot. It was only one bedroom but the location was ideal. Anyway, I am very into this show and have watched a lot of episodes on Youtube.
